Meanwhile, watching this from afar, Lorien didn't look that surprised after seeing how Gojo easily got rid of both Hanami and Choso in one strike, after all, the power gap between the two parties was quite big.

Frankly, the only reason they lived for so long was mainly because Gojo was previously limited by the presence of other humans around him which made him suppress his power to a minimum.

But now that such limits are out of the window, the huge power gap immediately became apparent.

'Tsk, I really liked Choso's characters in the original timeline, It's a pity seeing him die like this.'

Shaking his head, Lorien actually remained somewhat indifferent despite seeing the MC's nominal brother and a favorite character of his die.

After all, to Lorien, the original timeline was nothing more than an entertaining and very useful story, while real life is an entirely different matter.

Not to mention Choso being the MC's brother, even if he were the MC himself, Lorien wouldn't care much about him.

Moreover, everyone has their choices in life and they have to take responsibility for their actions.

Additionally, if Lorien were to save him, that would be unfair to all the normal and innocent people who died in his hands.

'Well, but I really like his change later on in the story...'

'Ugh, what will it be, fairness or my own interest...'

'Alright, how about something in between!'

Thinking about it, and feeling a slight hint of reluctance, Lorien couldn't help but turn his attention toward the Nightmare Realm where two new Nightmare Spirits appeared following the death of Choso and Hanami.

'Alright then, It's decided!'

'I'll help you keep your past memories, however, that's it! There won't be any more preferential treatment.'

'If he were to die in the hand of a Dream Path Walker in the future and becomes nourishment for said path taker, then so be it!'

'Moreover, the Nightmare Realm is technically a prison, so instead of giving him the death penalty, all I did was change it to a life sentence!'

Making his decision, Lorien immediately applied his thoughts to reality allowing the newborn Blood Nightmare Spirit which was supposed to be a blank sheet of paper to restore its past memory.

'Hmm? It seems that Gojo wants to torture Kenjaku slowly...'

Dealing with Choso's matter and satisfying his own interests, Lorien turned his attention back to Gojo and Kenjaku, his eyes full of curiosity.

The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

'I really wonder how Gojo used the information that I previously gave him, did he only use it to create the new minimum release or did he develop other interesting things...'

'Maybe he even modified his own domain into an open one, who knows!'

*Swish*

*Boom*

Looking at the center of the battlefield, Lorien watched as Gojo rushed toward Kenjaku to begin a bout of hand-to-hand combat.

*Clash*

*Clash*

*Boom*

In an instant, the two parties clashed numerous times at an incredible speed each showing their own skills.

However, while Kenjaku had a large advantage in terms of experience considering his age, it appears that this was quite useless in this battle as soon after they started their clash, Kenjaku was visibly suppressed by Gojo who kept attacking relentlessly.

Punch after punch, attack after attack, the advantage of having the six eyes was clearly displayed for all to see.

"Agh!"

Suddenly getting punched in the face, Kenkaku gritted his teeth as he used his reverse curse technique to heal his broken nose.

'What's going on with his punches, they have a weird power shrouding them that attracts the target before impact and pushes it afterward.'

'It increases the power behind each punch while being very disorienting.'

Suppressing the weird feeling that he was currently experiencing, Kenjaku conjured a bloody blob of energy in his hand as he began utilizing his wide arsenal of cursed techniques which he gathered in the past thousand years.

[Blood Manipulation]

*Swish*

In an instant, a red beam composed of blood instantly pierced through the air at an unbelievable speed heading toward Gojo who just looked at this attack indifferently.

*Bzzz*

Landing on his 'Infinity', the attack as everyone expected froze in place before slowly disappearing into nothingness after losing its energy.

Seeing this, Gojo looked at Kenjaku in confusion and a hint of mockery before finally saying.

"Is that all you got? I expected more from an expired brain of unknown age."

It's just that hearing this mockery, Kenjaku remained indifferent as he just continued attacking with different Cursed Techniques as he also silently released the veil he had been maintaining to cover Shibuya.

After all, the only reason that barrier was there in the first place was to keep the people in Shibuya from running away and keeping others from interfering.

However now, Kenjaku wants the opposite of this as it would be perfect if someone decides to join this battlefield, that way, Gojo will once more be limited and he'll have an opportunity to run away.

'Gojo works best when he's alone, and this place is now basically a perfect battlefield for him, I have to attract people here.'

However, just as he thought of this, both Gojo and Kenjaku's eyes suddenly widened as their attention was immediately attracted toward a certain direction.

'This presence...It's Sukuna! and based on the cursed energy levels, it seems that he is at full power now.'

'What happened to Yuji and the others?!'

With the barrier being released, Gojo was finally able to sense the outside world which enabled him to instantly detect Sukuna's presence, moreover, he also felt a familiar aura present in that direction.

'No question about it, this is Yuta!'

Realizing this, Gojo immediately tensed up as he wanted to rush there to check on his students, however, it's a pity that he still had business to do as he couldn't just let Kenjaku go free as that would be very dangerous.

It's just that while Gojo was analyzing what was happening, Kenjaku was one step ahead of him as he suddenly spoke, a smile finally appearing on his face.

"Your students are there, right? They won't survive long if you don't go now!"

"I still have to deal with you first!" Sneered Gojo in response aware of what Kenjaku was implying.

"Is trading my life for theirs worth it?" Replied Kenjaku while still maintaining his unsettling smile.

It's just that while Kenjaku was still trying to speak his way out of this situation, Gojo was having none of it as he suddenly raised his right hand in front of him forming a seal.

"There is no need for that! I just have to deal with you quickly, however, It's a pity that I couldn't enjoy torturing you!"
